Application filed December 11,1896. Serial No. 615,380. (No model.)

To (l/ZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ORRILLA SCOFIELD BRADLEY, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of Saratoga Springs, county of Saratoga, and State of New York, have in vented certain new and usefulImprovem cuts in Flat- Iron Cleaners,of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, forming a part thereof, in which similar letters of reference indicate c015 responding parts.

This invention relates to improvements in fiat-iron cleaners, the object thereof being to supply an article of this character which comprises in its construction a combination of means for cleaning, polishing, and waxing flat-irons.

The device is simple in construction, compact, and durable, and it is inexpensive and operative.

The invention will be hereinafter fully described, and specifically set forth in the annexed claim.

In the accompanying drawings, forming part of this specification, Figure 1 is a plan view of my improved device, showing the same resting upon a flat-iron holder. Fig. 2 is a side elevation of the device, showing the same in a position beneath a flat-iron holder; and Fig. 3 is an inverted plan view of the device.

In the practice of my invention I provide a rectangular base-plate A, having a handle 'A extended therefrom at the rear end thereof,

these two said parts being preferably formed integrally with each other of wood or other suitable material. The forward end of this material.

the cleaner While it is in use, and the legsf must be of a height sufficient and be located at such a distance apart as to admit of placing the cleaner under the flat-iron holder when the said cleaner is not in use.

I do not confine myself to the specific details of structure or contour as herein described, as it is obvious that under the scope of my invention I am entitled to slight structural variations.

Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

In a flat-iron cleaner, the combination of the base-plate having a beveled edge and a wedge-shaped strip of Wax secured to said beveled edge by means of a tightly-stretched fabric coating, and a plurality of sheets of soft material for cleaning irons, and a plurality of sheets of sandpaper for polishing them, these sheets being secured in series respectively to reverse sides of the base-plate, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention I have signed my name, in presence of two witnesses, this 9th day of December, 1896.
